It's Getting Dark And It's Getting Cold And The Nights Are Getting Long..

This is definitely my favourite time of year. It's not too cold, so you can still go for long walks and do things outside (: Yet, it's just cold enough to wear lots of lovely hats, scarves and coats! I've seen so many gorgeous coats this year, and although I've got enough coats to not justify buying another, I thought I'd compile a few of my faves into a post. I've put a mix of macs and full-on coats in here, because Autumn lends to both! So if you're looking for a coat as it's getting a bit chilly, do read on..

So there's a little bit of leather here and there, mostly in the form of leather sleeves or lapells, which I love. And most of the shapes are quite boxy-blazer style coats, rather androgynous, but this shape looks great with black skinny jeans and a great pair of boots!

Heritage is also a huge trend this Autumn/Winter, so the tweed fabric in these coats is bang on trend, and will also keep you really warm (: In my honest opinion, although I do love a good faux fur collar, I actually prefer no. 3 and no. 7 without the fur. They're both detachable collars though, so all is well!

Which ones do you like?

I've been quite busy this week with work, and when I'm not working I'm travelling over to see the chap. Found time to go see Bastille last week in London though, great band, so check them out (: And supporting was a girl called Jade Brown (amazing chick) & a band called Swiss Lips (who knows, they were rather MGMT-esque though, pretty good). Followed with a gorgeous Pizza Express in Camden, who knew?!
